By about 3pm I am usually done...I call it the witching hour after 3pm as people get tired, tires are getting worn, and some guys tend to push a little harder..this all can add up to foolish mistakes and wrecks.

Good hanging with you too. Kenny took out a bunch of preload and changed the damping and it was much better for the last two races. Still needs some adjusting. He's going to order a lighter spring (he shoulda listened to me when I first dropped it off  ). Besides having it pogo like that made me feel all fast, like I was maxing out the suspension. Which is a funny thing to have happen for me considering my "Light welterweight" classification. We need to plan to caravan to the WERA race at VIR and BeaveRun. I'd really like to race the Beav. |

You can come and inspect the Beav Jim since you don't want to race.  |

Anyone planning to go have a trailer capable trailer, but no trailer?
A buddy has a two bike enclosed that he lets me use - but I've not presently got anything to tow it to the track day. Anyone want to be my wonder twin?
Alternately anyone got a spot for me?

A buddy of mine might have an open trailer spot. I'll find out for sure this weekend. |

So I just got off the phone with Roger from MotorcycleXcitement about their group deal: Sign up 10 guys and the 11th rides free.
Last I heard, it was the 7 guys below:
Meerkat Jim
I ride a kawasaki so i'm too good to register on here Brett
"Skip rope" Panda Ian
Autohag "I hope by bike isn't still in pieces" Brian
Tocino grande! (in his own mind) Steve
Track Addict Venomousr1993 Randy
99Zulu who I met, but can't remember his name
Joe 'deep pockets' P
Some other possibilities include
My wife won't let me go Lars
I'm leaving early to drive fancy foreign cars Frank
Any other suckers want to be added to the list or anyone that I'm missing?

Oh no fish - gotta be the board member with the most seniority. Seeing as I'm the only one here from the DML days... That's my title. You can carry Jims umbrella

And the sugar fountain fairy swore so hard when she came to super-size that stale hope soybean; liiiike a homeless German woman. Who is this super-sizing spirit-crushing femme? And tell her I'll break a tree root up in her shrimp.
Being faster than you thought possible…it feels good. No, screw that—it feels like shotgunning a gallon of adrenaline and chasing it with an all-night orgy aboard a burning Viking boat.

I date back to the late toaster era - FWIW. But the point was to just raz Joe here. Really, it's Lars with the red thong that should be holding umbrellas. So I just got off the phone with Roger from MotorcycleXcitement about their group deal: Sign up 10 guys and the 11th rides free.
Is there some code word we need to put in while registering? They have a field for names... but in typical internerts fashion we don't know folks names in total. |
